Those years when I was a mutant in American manga

Chapter 75 Public Opinion, Choice (Please follow up!)
Time is such a scary thing.

In just half a month, the superhero Sang Whip has become a new news darling and has a large number of supporters.

If it is said that there is no one behind the scenes to fuel the flames, Weller is a hundred unbelievers!

In addition to following Tony's example in fighting terrorists, this guy has often shown his face in public and in crowded places in the past few days.

Rough character, kind hearted, mechanical genius...

Ivan Vanke, code-named Sangbian, was labeled with various labels, and was even used by many people to make various comparisons with Tony Stark.

But what followed was that a few days later, Ivan Vanke's "life experience" was exposed.

Ivan Vanke's father, Anton Vanke, was an employee of Stark Industries and a scientist who studied with Tony Stark's father, Howard Stark.

The Ark Reactor is the result of Anton Vanke's research, and Howard Stark is a despicable plagiarist!
He not only stole Anton Vanke's experimental results, but also framed Anton Vanke as a spy, and drove Anton Vanke out of country M, so that Ivan Vanke died tragically in Russia for half his life.

In other words, Tony Stark's current achievements are based on despicable technological plagiarism!

And mourning whip Ivan Vanke appeared in front of everyone with his research results in order to expose the true face of the Stark family to the world.

When Wheeler saw the news, he almost spit out a mouthful of old blood.

Good guy!
While framing the Stark family, it also established the bullied weak, bravely fighting against the evil forces for justice, and an indomitable genius scientist.

All of a sudden, Ivan Vanke stood at the commanding heights of morality and fired a fatal public opinion bomb at Tony.

So, not surprisingly, with the revelation of Ivan Vanke's "life experience", it caused a storm of news, especially after the news interviewed Ivan Vanke and got an affirmative answer, all the pressure was given to him. Here comes Tony.

And Tony also became angry because of Ivan Vanke's framing, because it not only involved him, but also involved the reputation of his father, an old man who had been dead for 20 years.

So, Tony threw out a bunch of evidence to prove that Anton Vanke traded with the Soviet Union to sell his identity as a spy for national interests, and produced a lot of research materials to prove the problem of the creator of the Ark reactor.

But facing these evidences, Ivan Vanke just stood from the perspective of the weak, and said with a sad expression: "These evidences are all fake! It was forged by Tony Stark!"

"Although I can't prove the authenticity of these so-called evidence, the government must have a way to prove it!"

When things progressed to this point, Weller, who had been following the progress of Stark and Vanke's incident, felt his heart sink.

Since Ivan Vanke dares to say that, it means that the two parties have reached a deal on the steel suit, at least a tacit understanding.

Sure enough, the government clearly had evidence that as long as they stood up and issued an official announcement, the incident between Stark and Vanke would be settled, but they chose to remain silent.

And silence is also an attitude.

As a result, public opinion began to turn to Ivan Vanke, but Tony was stigmatized as a thief, and Stark Industries was also affected, and the two were under increasing pressure.

"The government of Country M has already received an 'offer' from Ivan Vanke, so are you waiting for Tony to make an offer?"

Weller murmured, then shook his head.

It seems that the government of country M still prefers Tony's steel suit, but if the government of country M thinks this is an opportunity for Tony to hand over his steel suit, then they are wrong.

Tony would never hand over the steel suit.

Seeing that Stark's stock started to fall again during this storm of public opinion, Wheeler has already made plans to invest the spare money obtained from the previous missions.

Meanwhile, Tony's house.

Tony looked at the news report with a gloomy face, feeling extremely angry in his heart, towards Ivan Vanke and towards the government of Country M.

Of course he knew what the silence of the country M government at this time represented.

But, hand over the steel suit...

He will never do that.

Never thought about it.

"Tony, tell me something, what are you going to do?"

Rhodes was anxious like a top, walking back and forth in front of Tony, and said irritably: "As far as I know, Ivan Vanke has reached a preliminary agreement with the military and the government to help the military of country M create a steel war clothes, or sell the finished steel battle suits to the military.”

"It should be for sale." Tony said slowly: "The technology of the steel suit can only be maximized if you hold it in your own hands."

Rhode paused, looked at Tony seriously, and said, "Are you really not thinking about it? As long as you are willing to sell the steel suit, that bastard will be kicked out directly, and the current public opinion and situation will be completely reversed. "

"And then? I became a businessman selling weapons again?"

Tony said something leisurely, and then his voice became louder and louder, slowly tainted with anger that he couldn't control himself.

"This is not what I want! Want to put pressure on me through Ivan Vanke, let me start the sale of the steel suit? They stop daydreaming!"

On the contrary, Rhode calmed down quickly, and said coldly: "Tony, they are not dreaming, but choosing. If you don't regress, they can still choose Ivan Vanke, and they can still get the steel suit!"

"Then let them trade with that bastard!"

Tony cursed angrily, got up and left the living room.

Rhodes sighed.

The temptation of the steel suit is not so great. This is a weapon that can change the pattern of war. As long as there is such a steel army, the military power of country M will reach an unprecedented level.

Therefore, the government and the military will never give up this opportunity.

As a soldier, Rhodes certainly hoped to see Tony reach a new cooperation with the military, but as a friend of Tony, he respected Tony's decision not to sell weapons.

"But Tony, you're not the only one."

Rhodes murmured, turned and left with a heavy heart.

Tony rushed into the laboratory angrily, and when he was sitting on the tool table, holding a wrench, he calmed down quickly.

Block Ivan Vanke's deal with the government?

He can't do it now, unless he also sells the Iron Suit.

Let S.H.I.E.L.D. help stop this collaboration?

Ha, Captain Black Jack can't stop the government's decision, and maybe even wants to get a share of the action.

But Tony has an intuition that people like Ivan Vanke, or the people behind him, definitely don't just want to knock him down and reach a long-term cooperation and deal with the government of country M.

"They definitely have a conspiracy!"

Tony murmured, though he had no proof, he just felt it.

"If he has any conspiracy, I have to take some precautions. After all, the steel suit and the Ark reactor are all related to Stark..."

Tony murmured, and looked at the steel suit in the laboratory, with a firm look in his eyes.
